Analysis of the cutting process in machining of advanced alloys, which are typically difficult-to-machine materials, is a challenge that needs to be addressed. In a machining operation, cutting forces causes severe deformations in the proximity of the cutting edge, producing high stresses, strain, strain-rates and temperatures in the workpiece that ultimately affect the quality of the machined surface. In the present work, cutting forces generated in a vibro-impact and hot vibro-impact machining process of Ti-based alloy, using an in-house Ultrasonically Assisted Turning (UAT) setup, are studied. A three-dimensional, thermo-mechanically coupled, finite element model was developed to study the thermal and mechanical processes in the cutting zone for the various machining processes. Several advantages of ultrasonically assisted turning and hot ultrasonically assisted turning are demonstrated when compared to conventional turning.

Abstract In recent machining processes, 5-axis controlled machine tool is widely used for machining complicated workpiece shape with curved surface. In such process, to achieve high productivity, planning method of cutting conditions to satisfy both following the commanded tool feed rate in machining process and realization of good surface roughness are required. In conventional study, it is known that lead angle of tool posture against local machined surface influence the surface roughness. Then, common commercial CAM systems have already functioned to avoid interference and control the lead angle in each cutter location. However, in the generated cutter locations by the conventional algorithms, when the tool posture changes rapidly, there is a problem that actual feed rate does not reach the command value and machining time becomes longer than expected. In this paper, we propose the new tool posture correction algorithm. In the proposed method, first, the rotational axis that causes the feed speed rate decline is specified by preliminary experiments. And, the jerk value that is the threshold for the feed speed decline is investigated. After that, for the NC program, the command value of the target axis is modified within a range where interference of cutting tool does not occur, thereby preventing a decline in the actual feed rate. This paper describes an outline of the proposed modification method and the effect of the modification of the target axis positions on the lead angle and the actual feed rate.

Surface roughness decides the quality of machined components during machining processes. Output parameters namely cutting temperature, cutting force, tool wear, vibration etc. have direct influence on surface roughness of machined components. It is anticipated that better prediction would be possible if the above mentioned parameters are collectively considered with machining parameters. In this investigation, an effort was made to fuse machining parameters with cutting temperature to predict surface roughness while machining H13 steel. The developed regression model was tested for its ability to predict surface quality. The results proved that the developed sensor fusion regression model can be used for better prediction of cutting performance

Abstract Quality of machined surface is affected by quality of cutting process. There are many parameters, which influence on the quality of the cutting process. The cutting temperature is one of most important parameters that influence the tool life and the quality of machined surfaces. Its identification and determination is key objective in specialized machining processes such as dry machining of hard-to-machine materials. It is well known that maximum temperature is obtained in the tool rake face at the vicinity of the cutting edge. A moderate level of cutting edge temperature and a low thermal shock reduce the tool wear phenomena, and a low temperature gradient in the machined sublayer reduces the risk of high tensile residual stresses. The thermocouple method was used to measure the temperature directly in the cutting zone. An original thermocouple was specially developed for measuring of temperature in the cutting zone, surface and subsurface layers of machined surface. This paper deals with identification of temperature and temperature gradient during dry peripheral milling of Inconel 718. The measurements were used to identification the temperature gradients and to reconstruct the thermal distribution in cutting zone with various cutting conditions.

Machining Process Planning

The quality of a machined surface can be described by macro and micro parameters, like the size error, the form and position error or the surface roughness. The task of machining process planning is to find the best machining method and parameters, which ensure the required quality. In this article, the surface roughness in the case of turning and milling technologies is analysed. The effect of the cutting parameters (feed at turning and depth of cut at milling) and the tool parameter (corner radius) are investigated. The results are compared with the theoretical geometric model of surface roughness. In longitudinal turning as well as in constant Z-level milling, the geometric model of surface roughness is similar. The article presents whether the real surface roughness is similar too.

In this study, an attempt was made on the AA2024 alloy based hybrid nanocomposites reinforced with different weight percentage of SiC and B4C particles to investigate their physical and machinability characteristics including surface morphology. The Material Removal Rate (MRR), Surface Roughness (SR) of the nanocomposites machined by various machining processes namely Abrasive Water Jet (AWJ) machining, Wire Electrical Discharge (WED) machining and Computer Numerical Controlled (CNC) turning processes were studied comparatively. The machined surface formed by the each machining process is examined and its surface quality was discussed for each hybrid nanocomposite. Results show that the hardness is increased to 101.6 BHN from 179.4 BHN, when 2 wt.% of B4C and SiC particles is added to AA2024 matrix. Observed from the results that the addition of 2 wt.% of B4C and SiC particles produces the highest porosity of 3.36% for nanocomposite samples. The experimental results revealed that the addition of particulates in to the matrix reduces the MRR and increases SR. MRR results showed that hybrid nanocomposites machined by AWJ technique has minimum MRR of 0.0221 mm3/min. The surface roughness of the nanocomposites machined with AWJ process was 3.2 µm and increased to 6.81 µm for the AA2024-B4C-SiC hybrid nanocomposites machined with CNC process.

This research studied the influence of cutting fluids and cutting parameters on the surface roughness for stainless steel worked by turning machine in dry and wet cutting cases. The work was done with different cutting speeds, and feed rates with a fixed depth of cutting. During the machining process, heat was generated and effects of higher surface roughness of work material. In this study, the effects of some cutting fluids, and dry cutting on surface roughness have been examined in turning of AISI316 stainless steel material. Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate (SLES) instead of other soluble oils has been used and compared to dry machining processes. Experiments have been performed at four cutting speeds (60, 95, 155, 240) m/min, feed rates (0.065, 0.08, 0.096, 0.114) mm/rev. and constant depth of cut (0.5) mm. The amount of decrease in Ra after the used suggested mixture arrived at (0.21µm), while Ra exceeded (1µm) in case of soluble oils This means the suggested mixture gave the best results of lubricating properties than other cases.
